Luckily, they made the container's lever pull up and saved the men inside.

Aftermath

After the culprits were arrested, the detective boys returned to the neighborhood where the old lady was to return her the bill. She then treated the boys and bought them dumplings and snacks at Beika Dumplings, a nearby restaurant making Genta happy eating eel sticks, but this time, without eating the sticks too.

Trivia

• As Genta eats his eel stick, the Detective Boys ask him to chase after a bill so he runs after it but mysteriously swallows the remains of eel on his stick with the stick included. It might be a production mistake or perhaps, a proof that Genta can eat anything.
